My eyes go all wacky sometimes, but it's never associated with a headache. Usually I get an aurora effect. It's like a ribbon of distorted light flashing in my peripheral vision. So annoying, but it will usually work itself out within 30 minutes or so. My eye doctor couldn't give me a solid reason why it happens.

Every now and then, one of my eyes will just involuntarily twitch back and forth really fast for about 2 seconds. Weird.

I've also had "floaters" (broken blood vessels behind your eye that cause you to see a spot in your vision). You can get those from rubbing your eyes too hard or violent sneezing.
